Feel bad for you guys waiting on results. Hope you get em tomorrow, I'm just waiting on my lic # so I can call myself a PE and order a stamp...
I've already started calling myself a PE and added it to my e-mail signature since my boss and a few other PEs told me to, but I'm still anxious to get the license # so that I can get reimbursed for the exam fee.
You guys should get an F on the take home exam
Yeah, I don't think you can call yourself a P.E. till you receive your license number. The California Board has to certify that you met all requirements, i.e. pass the exam, pass the take home, ...etc. This is probably why the database hasn't been updated yet.
Careful Lando, without a license number you are not a PE yet, you're breaking the law.
